I think that Nut sounds like she had an interesting appearance. She is shown as a women that has a vase of water on her head, and her hands and feet are touching the ground in an arch shape. Her arms and legs are supposed to act like the four pillars the sky sits on. The form she is in represents both the sky and the heavens. Nut's father, the god of the air, holds her, representing the sky, over her husband Geb, representing the earth. She also had blue skin that was covered with stars. She was also shown standing up or even sitting.
Nut was the sky goddess. It was believed that Nut ate Ra, the sun god, then gave birth to him the next morning. She was also the goddess of death because the Egyptians believed that the pharaoh would go into Nut's body after he died. She also separates the chaos in the world. People also thought of her as the cow goddess because she could sometimes be like Hathor. Some people also called her the goddess of the stars. As well as being the goddess of other things, she was also the mother goddess. Nut had two parents and they were Shu, the father, and Tefnut, the mother. She also had a brother named Geb who she was also married to. She also had some symbols that represented her and they were some stars a night sky and cows.
If I were making a temple for Nut, it would be a giant one-roomed temple made out of marble. It would also have a tall, curved entryway so that it would let in the sunshine. You would also have to go up a few marble steps in order to walk into the temple. When you walked inside, there would be a giant statue of Nut. She would look the way other people have pictured her. That would mean that she would be very tall and have an arched shape. She would also be completely blue and covered with white stars. Also, all around the room would be smaller golden replicas of Nut. Also on the inside of the room, there would be a painting of the sky because Nut was the sky goddess and also represented the sky.
